Happy Birthday, Ed! (party favour noise)

I'm in no rush to get a pedal board, I'm going to be more a worktable kind of guy, swapping shit in and out all the time, but I think once I do settle, I'll do something like this.

See?

I was thinking more in a fantastical sense, but...okay.

I actually have the Digitech RP10, but I've always hated the distortions on those older models. I also have the more recent TC Electronics Nova system, which is digitally controlled analog ditortions, which I'm much more alright with. The Alesis Quadraverb GT also has an analog section, which I love. But those are the only two I know of that do their distortions analog-ly, and I want a wider palette. I'm sure there are other good ones, but when you're talking tone, most advice I get starts with "oh just get a <umptyump> pedal." I haven't given up -- on the contrary, I am not entirely unpleased with the direction with systems like the Fractal Audio Axe FX II. It's just a bit more dosh than I'm ready to lay out just yet, and I haven't seen it trickle-down yet.

Went to Action Music Guitars today, got a little overwhelmed by all the pedals. I could easily have spent over a thousand dollars, just on pedals. They also had a really pretty purply pink PRS, and a wicked cool Mel-o-Bar. Ended up getting a tube based overdrive distortion and a Timmy. Chris, I can't find it, but did you say you were lookinig for an optical based something? They had a whole bunch of the Carl Martin stuff, and a couple things were on sale (I want to say the Fuzz and the Term O'Vibe, but I don't remember the third one but it was probably the phaser).

I like how the leprechauns are dead but the unicorns are in an unknown (unknowable?) state.

I was strong-armed into joining. Please send help, I don't want to be here.

And...over it. Thanks, you just saved me US$40K US$80K.

This. So true. We learn through mimicry.

My sphincter clenched at 0:23.

Also, they pretty.

I already have the cheap SVS, but that's for my cheap system, I wanted the nicer SVS (the SB12) for my nicer system, and I probably will eventually get a Gallo Strada/SVS Ultra system, I'm just holding off. I sure hope they replace it with something. PB13/SB13?

Ooh, I like Neil Finn. Will have to see if he's on Spotify...Yup, Now playing...

I just performed minimal car-digging-out. Fortunately, there was not that much, the worst part was that I had to slog through icy-cold slush with every shovelful, to get the snow to someplace where it wouldn't inconvenience others. Fortunately, I had boots on, so didn't really get icy-cold slush in my shoes. But I still felt it.
